Today's road trip took us to Nafplio, another port town

This is a square you can see from the harbor.  As in Hydra, there are shops and tavernas down every street.

In the background,on the mountain is a huge, ancient fortress.

Good morning, good morning...

Didima Caves

 
About 30 minutes northwest of Ermioni is an ancient site called The Caves of Didyma, from roughly 395 to 610 AD, and apparently, it is still used today as evidenced by the furnishings in and outside the structures.

This is the stairway entrance to the crater where you will find two Byzantine churches situated under stone overhangs.

Dorable - This one's for you

Ermioni Harbor

This is a small part of the Ermioni harbor. Many people come to town by boat and there are many fishing boats as well.  You can see their huge nets piled up on the piers. That is a section of the village in the background.

Colors and textures

You never know what you're going to find as you turn that next corner. And yes...someone does live here!

This one's for sale.

Interested?
